Adapters for 2-inch Focuser Drawtubes

2-inch O.D. Adapters to fit the TCF-S and other 2-inch focusers.

Each of our 2-inch Drawtube adapters are machined to tight tolerances for a smooth, snug fit into the TCF-S and TCF-Si 2-inch focuser drawtubes. A dovetail cut directly matches the thumbscrews on the TCF-S for a secure fit.  By tightening the thumbscrews, the adapter is drawn tightly into the focuser's drawtube.

These 2-inch drawtube adapters will usually fit very well into other manufacturer's focusers as well.   Contact Optec for any 2-inch drawtube adapter not listed here.

#17666 - 2-inch to 3"x24tpi male  thread Adapter.

The 2-inch to STL thread adapter was developed to easily adapt the SBIG and QSI cameras and filters wheels for the TCF-S focuser.

By holding tight tolerances (+/- 0.003") Optec has achieved a slip-fit that is second-to-none.  When used with the TCF-S focuser, the #17667 with its  precision machined dovetail cut exactly matches the three thumbscrews on the focuser's  drawtube.  By tightening the thumbscrews, the dovetail is drawn tighter to the face of the drawtube completely eliminating flexure.

Harper R. ★★★★★

The threads are cut so precisely that the adapter screws onto my focuser without any wobble at all. I was worried about slop with a non-standard size like 2.156 inches, but the fit is absolutely snug and solid.

Emily ★★★★★

Machined perfectly—threads on this adapter mate to my focuser without any wobble at all. Finally my camera train sits rock-solid.

Joseph M. ★★★★★

Screws into my focuser with zero play, exactly what I needed for a snug connection. The 24tpi threading matched up perfectly on the first try.
